When the first female prime minister of Chen State...

The Queen drank her tea in silence.

Lady Ji is really exaggerating.

However, although I cannot be the prime minister, I can still give it a try by being her deputy.

The servants in Kunning Palace were also speechless.

Since ancient times, there has been no reason for women to serve as officials, and Lady Ji really dares to dream about it.

In front of the Queen's bed, Wu Qing, who had finished reading the plot book, took out a handkerchief from her pocket and prepared to start her performance.

“I know this dream is far away.”

Her eyes were slightly red, and she said tearfully, "But you don't know that my father values ​​boys over girls and has always looked down on me. When it comes to food and clothing, my brother is always given priority."

"When I was young, I could still have my own clothes. Later, my brother grew taller, so I could only wear the clothes he altered."

In an average family, it is common for brothers and sisters to wear each other's clothes.

But the problem is that Wu Qing's family is not poor, far from being so poor.

What's more, even if you want to wear old clothes, you shouldn't wear men's clothes.

Upon hearing this, the palace servants all showed indignant expressions.

Wu Qing continued, "After my mother passed away, he was even more eager to marry a second wife. As a father, he never showed any concern for me."

"Over the years, let alone the Four Books and Five Classics, I won't even read a storybook."

"Although I have a photographic memory, I have never been to school."

Wu Qing lowered his eyes and said sadly: "To be honest, there are some rare characters that I really don't know. I only know many of the characters on the list with the help of Xiao Luzi."

As she spoke, the days before Wu Qing entered the palace seemed like a desolate picture slowly unfolding before the eyes of the palace people.

As the daughter of a high-ranking official in the court, she was gifted and should have grown up in love, but her brilliance was deliberately concealed by her biased father.

Wu Qing cried bitterly.

Seeing this, Xiao Luzi, who was standing by, stepped forward and comforted him: "My dear, don't be sad, everything will get better slowly."

"Now that you have the protection of the Queen, you will surely shine and show your talents in the future."

The other eunuchs and palace maids also echoed, "Yes, my lord, you have an extraordinary memory and are gifted. How could you not have a chance to succeed?"

"The Emperor also dotes on you, so just rest assured."

【Life is like a play, it all depends on your acting skills. 】

Moved by her story, the eunuchs and palace maids around Wu Qing gathered around her, asking about her well-being, and their concern was evident in words.

Obviously, Wu Qing's performance of selling misery was a great success.

Wu Qing wiped away the non-existent tears from the corners of her eyes and stole a glance at Xiwen, who looked like he was about to explode with rage.

Humph, you can retreat in order to advance, and so can I!

Wu Qing let out a long sigh, filled with endless regret.

"I have a photographic memory, a rare talent in the world. However, due to my father's mediocrity and incompetence, I had to stay in seclusion, reading and memorizing "Female Rules" and "Female Tour" every day."

"However, at this critical moment, fate seemed to open a window for me again."

She changed the subject and began to flatter the Queen.

Wu Qing looked at the queen lovingly and said in a tone of poetry recitation: "Fortunately, the queen is here. The queen has entrusted the important task of selecting concubines to me. I will definitely work hard and assist the queen."

"The Queen is kind and virtuous, and will not let my precious pearl be covered in dust. I believe in the Queen and am willing to share your worries."

Wu Qing's words not only expressed his admiration for the queen, but also cleverly demonstrated his loyalty.

When she demonstrated her photographic memory, the servants' attitude toward her changed from scrutiny to admiration and curiosity.

After her confession and surrender, the palace maids in Kunning Palace already treated her as one of their own.

Now, the way they looked at Wu Qing was less contemptuous and more friendly.

[It's just the workplace, you little idiot. ]

[Who can not be convinced by my combination of strength and emotion? ]

Wu Qing said in a daze, "I am also very good at dealing with old-timers like Xiwen."

[Hehe, I'll let you embarrass me again. ]

The queen watched the whole thing and was almost overjoyed.

She was accustomed to all kinds of calculations and hypocrisy in the palace, but at this moment, the noble lady Ji in front of her brought her an unprecedented sense of freshness.

It's impossible to say that she has no ulterior motives.

But why is she being so cunning?

——Not for fame, not for profit, just to vent my anger!

The Queen concluded with a smile:

"I witnessed with my own eyes that Lady Ji actually recited the article on the screen word for word. This shows that her ability to remember everything she sees is not a lie."

"In this case, the list of concubines provided by Noble Lady Ji is probably authentic. In this case, I will not pursue the matter of the lost list."

The Queen changed the subject and said, "However, the disappearance of the list is a fact. I cannot let it go so easily."

"Mr. Ji, please put aside the matters related to the selection for the time being and reflect on yourself for a while."

Wu Qing lowered his head, feeling a little dejected.

[Alas! The Queen still deprived me of my power to assist in palace affairs. ]

[It’s over. I can’t be the behind-the-scenes producer of a talent show anymore.]

[Damn it, who is the thief? ]

[When I catch you, I will beat you up! ]

At this time, the Queen raised her eyes slightly and said, "Although Noble Ji is not strict enough in palace affairs, her memory amazes me."

"Therefore, I have decided to give you a task to teach the eldest and second princes to read and write. Are you willing?"

She smiled slightly.

"The princes have been rather lazy in their studies lately, always complaining that the texts are hard to memorize, which gives me quite a headache."

"After much thought, I think if you go and teach them, maybe they can calm down and study hard. Are you willing to take this job?" asked the queen.

Wu Qing suddenly raised his eyes, a little confused.

She realized belatedly that she seemed to have been promoted?

Although assisting the Queen in organizing the selection was an important task, it seemed less important than teaching the princes.

——After all, the student she is going to teach is the future emperor!

Although Wu Qing was very bad at history, she also knew that teaching the prince was the duty of a great scholar, and without profound knowledge, one was not worthy of entering the upper study.

However, compared to Wu Qing, Aunt Xiwen was the one who was more surprised and suspicious.

She hurriedly advised: "Madam, the princes have always been taught by the masters, how can Concubine Ji take over?"

"Let's not talk about how the princes will feel. I'm afraid that after the teachers learn about this, they will also feel dissatisfied and complain."

Xiwen's voice sounded somewhat anxious, and it was obvious that she really wanted the Queen to give up this decision.

How can a woman be a teacher?

The Queen smiled faintly and said, "It's just that as an elder, Lady Ji occasionally gives some pointers to the princes. Why make such a fuss?"

In this matter, the queen also had some unknown selfish thoughts in her heart.

The eldest prince is her blood, born after ten months of pregnancy and great pains. Now he is nearly an adult, in the prime of his life, and is the perfect candidate to inherit the throne.

However, the Emperor did not seem to be keen on opposing the Crown Prince and never revealed any clear intention.

The Queen hopes to further understand the Emperor's thoughts through Wu Qing's thoughts.

Therefore, she must create an opportunity for Wu Qing and the eldest prince to be together.

The Queen turned around and asked, "Noble Lady Ji, what do you think?"

Wu Qing rolled his eyes and immediately knelt down to agree.

"I will definitely live up to your expectations!"
